    Greetings, I found your great forum through Youtube. I've been hooked on station wagons since I was a little kid, which I guess seems a little strange, but wagons were everywhere back in the late sixties/early seventies. My first car was a '68 Pontiac Catalina wagon. Over the years I have had a '74 Pinto squire, a '78 Chevy Impala wagon that was a retired police car, '59 Olds 88 wagon, '95 Buick Roadmaster estate, '02 Mercury Sable wagon and my current driver '05 Taurus wagon.
    Although I'd like to have another old wagon - I have the usual "not enough time, money and space" problem. I do have a large collection of station wagon toys though that are much easier to park and insure. This is how I found you guys, I was posting a video on Youtube of some of my wagon toys. Check it out when you can. It can be found by entering TOY DEN STATION WAGON in the youtube search box. I have several other toy videos on that also include wagons. If I can figure out how to do a direct link, I'll post that also.
    Glad I found you, look forward to exploring the site

    :Welcome:to the wagon forum from NW Florida. Seem to be several wagon owners here from Florida and on the roads around the state. Keep looking and an older wagon will show up and want to follow you home. :tiphat:

    Yes - very nice collection.
    I really like the 1960 Chevy Nomad in the box. Is that a diecast?

    Thanks, The Chevy wagon is Japanese tin litho from back in the day. If you get a chance check out my other videos also. All of them have other wagons in them.

    I just figured out how to answer replies, sorry for the delay. The Chevy wagon you were asking about is a tin friction piece made in Japan in the sixties.
